She was also the first woman ever to appear nude in a movie.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecond: She is famous as an inventor, a scientist and a researcher, especially during the Second World War, as she developed and patented a method to defend against torpedoes and missiles. She also developed an anti-aircraft system where the anti-aircraft fire would not hit the aircraft but would explode nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNowadays, in the aftermath of the shooting down of Malaysian Airline 17 over Eastern Ukraine, killing 298 passengers, a new look is being taken at the process developed by Hedy Lamarr. The missile that shot down the Malaysian Airplane used a system similar to the one developed by Hedy Lamarr, and the defense against torpedoes she developed might have applications to prevent future commercial aircraft from being knocked down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ishi Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49830236455152,"sku":"9784871876261","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9784871876261","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
